Short Routine Fun

Ah, this is genuinely pretty fun for what it is. I like how simple it is to share your score with friends on, say, Twitter and see how everyone measures up without the answer being spoiled for you on sight.

Ah, this is genuinely pretty fun for what it is. I like how simple it is to share your score with friends on, say, Twitter and see how everyone measures up without the answer being spoiled for you on sight. It's a shame you only get one word a day, I'd probably play this for a decent amount of time if given the option, but I suppose it lessens the risk of getting bored of it.

Wordle is the rare game that respects you. That's worth four stars right there.

Sometimes my wife and I will be awake at midnight, and I'll look at her and she at me, and we'll both ask "Wordle?" Then we'll quietly play on our phones followed by one of us mumbling "you gotta be kidding me- I'm an idiot." Then the one finished person waits for the other person to finish, and then they say "I went YOKEL then SPIKE then SHUKE then finally STAKE" while the other person nods. Then the other person explains their path to success, and we both close by saying "that was fun!"

I don't really have a whole lot of complaints. I'm just not gunna give it a five because there are much higher highs in video games than the silent midnight Wordle. But if you haven't given into the wishes of your terminally online Twitter aunt yet, just do it. It's less fun than the endless social media hype would have you believe but more fun than your skepticism will allow.
